This will be the second location in the Des Moines area operated by Southern Hospitality Ventures Inc., a Raising Cane's franchise. Franchise co-owner Jennifer Jones said the company had been looking to expand into Altoona for quite some time.

"Ever since we opened a restaurant in West Des Moines, people have been asking when and where the next one will be," she said in the release. "We're excited to let people know doors are scheduled to open in early March."
